Taking into account the rights they have to the material. They could expand on.the war of the ring, especially the battles of lorien and the battles up in the north between the men and the easterlings.
And also balins expedition to moria, however doubt they could make a film.out of this as it is a pretty depressing ending at the end of it, not really an ending that is needed for a film.

There will always be the option of putting a pointless wannabe-romance front and center 
Sorry, I guess you can tell that I watched DOS EE recently and still don't get how that silly Tauriel-storyline could take up so much space. I don't really mind it per se, but it seems to occupy about a quarter of the movie and that's just a wee bit totally too much for my taste.

I think the War in the North would be the best option -

- at this time.
They still have the cast playing the likes of Elrond, Galadriel, Thranduil, Radagast and the surviving Dwarves still available.
Regardless of one's opinion of the Hobbit Trilogy, the War of the Ring seems to be the most popular Middle-Earth era for general audiences. Also, the relative vagueness of the source material could turn out to be an advantage (and there's less chance of 'true fans' pointing out where you just weren't faithful enough to it).
I imagine that there are people probably wondering what was going on up North when Sauron launched his assault on Middle-Earth. It would also give audiences a much better idea of the scale of the Dark Lord's plans.
And of course, there's also the possibility of the mysterious Blue Wizards making an appearance.
From the makers of 'The Lord of the Rings' comes the sequel to Peter Jackson's Hobbit Trilogy -
'The War in the North, Part I : The Sword in the Tomb'.

...so much potential;
The Mouth seeking alliance with the dwarves of Erebor.
Dwalin could visit Thorin's grave and see Orcrist glowing upon the stone, and so be able to warn his fellow dwarves there are orcs coming.
Maybe dwarven refugees coming to Erebor (because the Iron Hills are lost)?
The siege of Erebor with Bain (instead of Brand) fighting (and dying) side by side with Dain at Erebor.
The battle under the trees with Thranduil and maybe Tauriel present.
The attacks on Lothlorien with Khamul vs. Galadriel.
The Beorning and Radagast aiding somewhere? Maybe including the eagles and at the end Radagast asking Gwaihir to aid Gandalf?
But the losses should be great on the side of the Free People. Sauron (and his plan) should not be depicted as utter failure.

to see a set of films dealing with the Blue Wizards and their exploits and adventures. However, I doubt legally they could get away with it.
This tale grew in the telling. . .

I think they could totally create a movie or movies based around that series of events. I think the problem might be though that there is no Fellowship or Thorin's Company to focus the adventure on.

...but there are enough more or less famous characters who could play a role;
- Galadriel
- Celeborn
- Haldir (before leaving for Helms Deep)
- Khamul (when not (yet) around Shire/Mordor)
- Gollum (before escaping from Thranduil's halls)
- Mouth of Sauron
- Radagast
- Thranduil
- Legolas (before leaving for Rivendel)
- Dain
- Tauriel
- Dwalin
- Bain
Should be enough, I think...
